Since they married in 1986 they have rarely been apart.

But Richard is already feeling a little lonely after having been in quarantine for two weeks. 

He said: “I think the only other time we’ve spent more than a week apart was two or three years ago when I did The Circle on Channel 4, and we were apart for about ten days.”

He will even miss their 35th wedding anniversary. He added: “That’ll be the first that I’ve missed and it’s a big one.

“I actually gave her her present a couple weeks ago and a card, which she’s going to open on the day.

“But we’ll make up for it when I come out.  I’ll have been freezing my arse off for the last couple of weeks in the castle.

“So we’ll probably go to Florida for a couple of weeks and I’ll thaw out and that’ll be her treat.

“I’ll miss her a huge amount. I spend every day of my life with her, either working with her or in the house.

“So, yeah,  I’m already feeling strangely dislocated. She’s my right arm and she’s not here.”

Dad-of-two Richard filmed a video for his new Instagram page earlier this week.

On it he said: “I want to say a final  bye-bye to my beloved wife Judy.

“Bye Judy, bye kids, see you on the other side.”

The show returns on Sunday.
